Coffee: If you're not shaking, you need another cup. (refrigerator magnet)
Conversation among two couples overheard while eavesdropping and drinking coffee at an outdoor restaurant:
Man 1: There's another foreclosure sign on our street this week. Neighborhoods where houses go in the millions are supposed to be safe.
Man 2: Probably some poor sucker lost a job. We've decided to add a patio and outdoor kitchen to our pool area.
Woman 1: Speaking of pools. I could use one right now. Could it be any hotter? No wonder the glaciers and ice caps are melting.
Woman 2: Can you imagine living without AC? We've kept ours on 68 most of the summer.
Man 2: Last week, we had to let five of our office staff go. There was a lot of boo-hooing. You'd think they'd have more self control. They got an extra pay check.
Man 1: They do live in the United States of American. It's not Somalia.
Woman 2: What does that have to do with anything? What's Somalia?
Man 1: There's a drought there and no food. I wonder why they've all gone to Kenya. You'd think they'd know it's over-crowded there. Aren't they smart enough to figure that out.
Woman 1: Did I tell you? The darn possums ate our figs this summer. They ate almost every one on the tree. We hardly got any for ourselves.
I decided to leave the coffee shop. More than the coffee had me shaking.
